What I Fail To Understand Lyrics

Sioen What I Fail To Understand

An Accident
someone
needs help
a child in tears
where are you?

somebody fast
get a doctor please
an ambulance
where are you?

what I fail
to understand
why cant we all
go hand in hand
and put an end

a white stick ticks
its way through hell
it hesitates, traffic

why dont you take him
by the hand are you
turning him
a blind eye?
cant help but pity you

what I fail
to understand
why cant we all
go hand in hand
and put indifference
to an end

way to go
you dont care abou
politics and so
your life is good
and covered
and well its not your
fault that things are
going the wrong way

so you stay
stepping on your
territory cries
blue murder
fine, have it your way
dont come begging
for help cause
no one will if they
are handling
your way

if you dont speak
you lose the right
to talk
if you dont hit
the streets, you aint
got the right to walk
I wonder, does a man
just have clean hands
because hes not
using them

what I fail
to understand
why cant we all
go hand in hand
and put indifference
to an end

what I fail
to understand
you gotta be
to be a man
indifference is
washed away
just take me
by the hand
